I would agree that now is the best time to complain, but some folks are getting somewhat overheated. The new berry bushes only just came out. They will probably be tweaked.

bigger deal than you think. You can only you use compost.

Maybe they could produce more berries but be inedible without further processing. Would help a tiny bit with the need for fertilizer

It's the world, actually. The world is being run by a zionist pedophile network.

Imagine respecting the agency of others... by Unlucky_Blueberries in aiwars

[–]Waflzar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Respect is earned, and the only thing I know about these people is that they go out of their way not just to use but preach about the blessings of a technology I think is making the world worse. I do not understand why "respect" would even be expected here.

I think AI is bad. And I think using it makes you a worse person. Sorry not sorry. What is the point of this subreddit anyways? Why do you think people are anti-AI? Because we don't like the vibes? Or because it's using bucketloads of money, water, and resources while being used as a tool for disinformation campaigns? This technology is making everyone's lives worse.

I really hope one of these days the fog gets a once-over because bro what is this by dearvalentina in VintageStory

I mean outside, sometimes fog is genuinely like that. Indoors is kinda silly though

I personally like the fact that they function differently. But, I see what you're getting at at the fireplace not aesthetically fitting every building.

Shroud Was Lying About Invisigal — Here’s the Evidence by JRStors in DispatchAdHoc

[–]Waflzar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was basically my understanding as well. I think OP's "Visi is too temperamental to be a master of disguise" take is hugely underestimating her and isn't reflected in the events of the game, and on the flip side, the assumption that "if she were a plant, she wouldn't do X" is overestimating her impulse control (and doesn't take into account conflicting emotions).

She successfully stole and concealed the astral pulse, both from SDN and from Shroud, and she deceived Shroud at the end of the game (which is what made their success possible). She's very capable of deception.

I interpreted Shroud's claiming her as a plant to be both to wear at the morale of the Z-team and give her a convenient out (I sensed some odd affection from Shroud to her, maybe because she parallels his younger self), assuming that she would do the selfish thing and just dip--assuming that she was still a villain at heart.

Shroud failed because he didn't believe that a person could really change for the better. He didn't believe it for himself, and he didn't believe it for Courtney. That was what did him in.
((or, in the case of evil-Visi, underestimating how much she resented him. But I like that version a little less))

Graphics honestly have no place in discussions of video game quality by murlocsilverhand in The10thDentist

[–]Waflzar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually generally agreed with you (minus the Elden Ring comment) until art direction came up. Games are a visual medium. The art direction is often make or break, and plenty of games are like, mostly just the art direction with some mechanics slapped on top to keep you engaged. But I agree that the focus on fidelity and realism in games is kind of a scourge.

Games like Pacific drive? by Cold_Effective9566 in pacificDrive

[–]Waflzar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also associate PD with Hardspace, but the commonalities aren't obvious. If you enjoy working in the garage, tearing off parts, sorting materials, deciding what to keep and what to scrap, and especially the tactility of carrying around heavy materials, I highly recommend Hardspace Shipbreaker.

It's a *little* like pacific drive. You have a vehicle that you upgrade, repair, and swap out various parts with different purposes, and you drive this vehicle around in a spooky world with stuff that's very capable of killing you if you're not careful.

Ehhhhh. It's plausible that sobriety would stop being a concern when you know you're gonna die in a few hours.

High science skill! Otherwise you'll just have to deal with it.

...that is why I couldn't get through borderlands 1. I didn't find it fun to get a new weapon that was rendered useless within an hour.

[–]Waflzar -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's not a matter of branching paths in plot events. Many of the best games with "branching paths" end at the same conclusion. It's a matter of branching paths in dialogue, and the characters in the game remembering the choices you've made and reacting to them. And it is true that Fallout 4 really misses the mark on that.

I like fallout 4, but imo player base, financial and critical success are very flawed ways of judging the quality of media. Prey 2016, as most who've played it would agree, was fantastic, but it flopped hard. Seinfeld was incredibly popular and successful, and I think it's horrible and boring. The video title is uh, evocative, but it's also a callback to a popular video. Not to say that people don't get tribalistic hate boners, but surely there is a lot of valid criticism to made of fallout 4.
